PREFACE.
THIS Guide contains descriptions of the Egyptian Sculptures
and other Egyptian Antiquities which are exhibited on the
Ground Floor, in a series of Galleries extending from north
to south on the west side of the British Museum.
The arrangement is, as far as possible, chronological.
The monuments of the Ancient Empire are placed chiefly in
the Vestibule ; those of the Middle Empire will be found in
the Northern Gallery and Central Saloon; and in the Southern
Gallery are the Antiquities of the New Empire, and of the
Saite, Ptolemaic, Roman and Christian Periods.
For convenience of reference the monuments have been
renumbered consecutively with numbers painted in the top
centre of the plinths and frames. The old numbers are in
the left-hand lower corners. Indexes to the two' sets of
numbers will be found on pp. 307 ff.

state of archa'ic form, and holding a staff. The inscription
shows that Shera was a " superintendent and priest of the ka"

memorative services for the king at regular intervals. From

he may have a " happy burial " in Semt-Amentet, i.e., the
Mountain of Amentet. The deceased was a " royal kinsman,"

meri-Amen, king of Nubia, about B.C. 750, set up at Napata,
(Gebel Barkal), to commemorate his invasion and conquest of
Egypt. Piankhi heard that a great rebellion had broken out
in Egypt, headed by a local chief called Tafnekhth, who had
captured Memphis, and was sailing up the Nile, presumably
to Thebes. As he sailed southwards, city after city submitted
to him, and at length he arrived at Herakleopolis, which
he besieged. Piankhi ordered his generals who were in
Egypt to stop the advance of Tafnekhth, and in a short time
the troops which he sent made Tafnekhth raise the siege and
take to flight. Soon afterwards, Piankhi himself set out for
Egypt, and having arrived at Thebes, and offered up sacrifices
to Amen-Ra and the other gods of the city, he sailed north-
wards with his troops to attack the foe. Hermopolis,
Herakleopolis, and the Fayyum submitted to him, and then
he advanced on Memphis. Here he found the gates closed,
and the people hostile, but he sailed his boats close up to the
walls of the city, and his soldiers were able to drop from the
bows, which projected over the tops of the walls, for it was
the season of the inundation, into the city, and so " captured
it like a water-flood." Piankhi sacrificed to the gods of
Memphis, and then crossed the Nile and went to Heliopolis,
where he worshipped the gods, made offerings to them, and
celebrated a feast in their honour. In a very short time he
crushed the rebellion, and the leader Tafnekhth, having sued
for pardon and presented gifts, was forgiven by Piankhi.
The Nubian king made no attempt to administer the country,
but having filled his boats with the gifts made to him by the
vanquished governors, he sailed southwards to Napata. The
text is the fullest and clearest of all the Egyptian historical

Napata, and is now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
Height 6 ft. 7 in. [No. 1125.]
816. (Bay 20.) — Cast of a stele inscribed with an account
of the Coronation of Aspelta, king of Nubia, at Napata, in
the sixth century before Christ. The text records that the
chief officers of state presented the " Royal Brethren " before
Amen-Ra, and expected him to indicate which of them was
to be king by touching him. When the Royal Brethren had
passed before the god, who made no sign, they brought into
his presence Aspelta, whose mother had been high-priestess
of Amen. Then Amen-Ra touched him, and declared that he
should be king, and should rebuild the temples in the lands
of the South and North, and bestowed upon him the sceptre
and crown of sovereignty. Thereupon the priests and soldiers
cast themselves down before Aspelta, and paid him homage.
The inscription concludes with a statement that Aspelta
established two annual festivals, and enumerates the gifts
which he bestowed upon the priests of Amen. The original
stele was found at Gebel Barkal, opposite to the site of the
ancient city of Napata, in the Sudan, and is now in the
Egyptian Museum at Cairo. Height 5 ft. 4 in. [No. 1122.]
817. (Bay 20.) — Cast of a stele inscribed with an account
of the passing of an edict of excommunication by a king of
Napata in the sixth century before Christ. This edict was
directed against a Sudani sect, or tribe, which appears to have
been in the habit of eating raw meat, probably cut from the
animal whilst still alive. It seems that the sect also deter-
mined to slay all those who cooked their meat before eating
it. The edict strictly prohibits any eater of raw meat from
entering the temple of Amen-Ra of Napata, and invokes a
curse upon all the members of the sect and their posterity.
The original stele was found at Gebel Barkal, opposite to the
site of the ancient city of Napata, in the Sudan, and is now
in the Egyptian Museum at Cairo. Height 4 ft. [No. 1126.]

outstretched arms, kneeling upon signs for "gold" f>*«^,
and above, all round the edge, is a border formed of the

outside is covered with series of texts and vignettes from
the 1st, Ilnd, Illrd, Vlth, VHIth and IXth Sections of the
Book entitled " That which is in the Tuat " (or Other
World). This work illustrates the passage of the Night
Sun through the twelve Sections of the Tuat, and was
intended to form a guide to that region, and to help the souls
of the dead to pass from this world to the next in safety.
The First Section is cut on the rounded head of the sarco-
phagus, and it describes the region of the Tuat which was
passed through by the Sun-god during the first hour of the
night. The region is called Net-Ra. In the two centre
registers we see the Boat of Ra with his attendant gods, and
the Boat of Osiris with his attendant gods. Above and
below are figures of the gods who sang praises to Ra as he
travelled onwards. The Second Section, which represents the
region of Urnes, is cut on the right side of the sarcophagus,
and contains the "fairy boats" with which Ra travelled; they
contain the moon, the Hathor fetish, the Lizard-god, and the
Grain-gods. Above and below are the various gods who
preside over the seasons of the year, the harvest, etc., and
those who minister to the needs of the Sun-god, and light his
way and destroy his enemies. The Third Section, which

represents the region of Net-neb-ua-kheper-aut, is cut on the
left side of the sarcophagus, and contains three boats, wherein
are gods who assisted the Sun-god. Above and below are
the gods who destroyed the Seba fiend and his attendants, and
who burned up with the fire from their bodies all those who
tried to bloc.k the path of the Sun-god, These gods also
made the Nile to flow. The Sixth Section, which represents
the region Metchet-mu-nebt-Tuat, is cut on the right side of
the sarcophagus near the foot. It contained the abode of
kings and of the spirits of the great, and the chambers of Ra.
The beings who were therein came to life when they heard
the words of the Sun-god, and rendered him service. The
Eighth Section, which represents the region Tebat-neteru-s,
is cut on the left side of the sarcophagus, near the foot ; it
contained a series of " circles," or abodes of gods, who came
into life when the Sun-god appeared, and performed their
service, and wailed loudly when he departed from them.
The Ninth Section, which represents the region Best-aru-
ankhet-kheperu, is cut upon the foot of the sarcophagus. In
it dwelt the gods who provided new light and fire for the
Sun-god, and prepared his material form for new birth. ' The
remaining six sections of the book " That which is in the
Tuat " were probably cut upon the cover of the sarcophagus,
which was destroyed in ancient days. The lower portion of
each side of the sarcophagus, and of the head and foot,
contains a selection from the " Book of Praises " of the
Seventy-five Forms of the Sun-god Ra, with figures of thirty-
seven of these Forms. This sarcophagus was found in
the courtyard of a building at Alexandria, dedicated to
St. Athanasius, where it is said to have been used for some
hundreds of years as a bath. To facilitate the removal of the
sediment of the muddy Nile water, twelve holes were drilled
through the sides and ends of the sarcophagus on a level with
the bottom inside. (Plates XXXII, XXXIII.) Weight

came into the possession of the British Government at the
capitulation of Alexandria. It is inscribed with portions of
fourteen lines of hieroglyphics, thirty-two lines of demotic,
and fifty-four lines of Greek text. Portions of the slab have
been broken off from the top and the right hand bottom
corner. The missing portion from the top was probably
about fifteen inches high, and it was, no doubt, rounded and
sculptured with a winged disk, having pendent uraei wearing
the crowns of the South mj and North ( e/ ) like the
Canopus Stone. (See the cast in Bay 28, No. 957.)
The Rosetta Stone is inscribed with a copy of the Decree
promulgated in the ninth year of the reign of Ptolemy V.
Epiphanes, by the priests of Memphis, who had assembled in
that city to celebrate the first commemoration of the coronation
of the king who was not crowned until the eighth year of his
reign. This decree was first drawn up in the Egyptian
language, and was written in the cursive writing in general
use at that time, now known as demotic. In the Decree the
priests set forth the good deeds of Ptolemy V, and enumerate
the benefits which he had conferred upon Egypt, and, as a
mark of their great appreciation of these acts of goodness,
they decreed that: — I. Additional honours be paid to the
king and his ancestors. 2. An image of the king be set up
in every temple in Egypt, and worshipped three times a day.
3. A statue of the king in a shrine be set up in the sanctuary
of every temple, and both statue and shrine to be specially
dressed and carried in processions on sacred days. 4. A
monthly festival to be established on the king's birthday and
coronation day. 5. The first five days of the month Thoth to
be observed as a festival, and garlands worn. 6. The priests
who carry out these instructions to have a special title, and
their names to appear in official documents and on their
rings. 7. Private citizens to be allowed to establish a shrine
and to keep all festivals, yearly and monthly. 8. This Decree
to be inscribed upon a hard stone stele in (a) the writing of
the priests, (6) in the writing of books, and (c) in the
writing of the Greeks, and set up in every temple of the
first, second, and third class throughout Egypt, by the side of
the statue of the king.
In accordance with these orders, slabs of basalt were
prepared and copies of the Decree cut upon them in the
Egyptian and Greek languages. The Egyptian version was
written in the "writing of the priests" (i.e., hieroglyphics),
and in the " writing of books " (*>., demotic), and the Greek

version in ordinary uncials. Thus each copy became a
bilingual document in Egyptian and Greek, though it
contained three kinds of writing. The Rosetta Stone was
one of the stelae inscribed with the Decree of the priests of
Memphis, which were set up in the temples as a result of this
Decree, and its original home was probably the temple of
Temu at Rosetta, whence came the intercolumnar slab of
Nekht-neb-f in Bay 28, No. 927. Other stelae inscribed with
the hieroglyphic text of the Decree are known, e.g., the Stele
of Damanhur, now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, and
another has been discovered in recent years. For an account

1049. (Bay 31.) — Relief from the south wall of the inner-
most chamber of the funerary temple which stood on the
east side of the pyramid of one of the queens called Candace,
in the great pyramid-field, near the site of the city of Meroe,
the capital of the Island of Meroe, about 150 miles to the
north of Khartum. On the right is sculptured in relief a
figure of the queen, who is seated under a canopy and holds
in her hands sceptres symbolic of sovereignty and dominion ;
by her side is seated her Consort, whose feet rest upon a
group of men representing conquered tribes. By the side of
his throne are figures of members of the royal family, and
behind him stands the goddess Isis pouring out a libation.
Immediately in front of the knees of the large figure of the
queen is another figure of the queen, who is standing by the
side of a table of offerings and pouring out a libation. She
stands above a seated figure of Osiris, who wears the atef
crown. Arranged in rows before the god and the queen are
vases of wine, beer, and unguents, animals bound for sacrifice
at the funeral feast, baskets of figs, four bulls for sacrifice,
bread-cakes, fruit, etc. Above these is a group of gods and
goddesses who are making offerings at altars, and performing
funerary ceremonies on behalf of the dead queen. The re-
maining portions of the relief are filled with figures of priests,
officials, relatives, friends, and representatives of tribes, bear-
ing offerings, palm branches, etc. Though broken in places,
this relief is a very fine example of the wall decoration of
funerary temples in the Sudan during the Roman Period. It
was originally painted, and traces of red colour still remain.
